Definition and structure of explosion-proof torque sensors

1、 Definition and function of explosion-proof torque sensor
Explosion proof torque sensor is an instrument that can measure the torque of rotating parts, mainly used for detecting and measuring fasteners. The explosion-proof torque sensor can measure a wide range of very small and very large torques. In fields such as chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries, explosion-proof torque sensors are widely used to detect and monitor the torque of fasteners.
The function of explosion-proof torque sensors is to ensure that fasteners maintain appropriate tightening force during equipment operation, avoiding situations of over tightening or loosening, which may affect the stable operation of the equipment. At the same time, explosion-proof torque sensors can monitor the status of equipment fasteners. If any loose fasteners or other abnormal situations are found, timely warning information should be provided to avoid danger.
2、 Structure of explosion-proof torque sensor
The structure of the explosion-proof torque sensor is relatively simple, mainly including the following parts:
Torque sensor: The torque sensor is the core part of the explosion-proof torque sensor, which can convert torque signals into electrical signals and transmit them to the control system for processing.
Transmission mechanism: The transmission mechanism is the part that converts the torque of rotating parts into signals that the torque sensor can accept, and its main function is to transmit the rotational force to the torque sensor.
Shell: Explosion proof torque sensors usually use metal or alloy shells to ensure their safe operation in harsh environments.
